Includes bibliographical references (p. [135]-136), Internet addresses and index.
Examines the history of the First World War with a particular focus on the letters of Jim Fargey, a soldier who served during the First World War in the 79th Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders regiment. Jim Fargey was only 17 when he left home in Manitoba to join the Canadian Expeditionary Force to fight in Europe. His letters home gloss dover the horrors of war. "Hold the Oxo!" tells the story that lies between the lines of his letters, filling in the historical context and helping us to understand what it was like to be Jim.
